Menopause: Breaking the Taboo, Business Leads the Way Recently, the business world has been humming with news about menopause and new initiatives targeted at assisting women throughout this life stage. Midi Health recently raised an impressive $60 million in Series B funding to help women over 35. They are also creating a program exclusively for women who have had breast cancer or are at risk and are now approaching menopause. Startups are also stepping up. Clue, a menstrual health app, collaborated with ŌURA Ring to assist users track body temperature, an important symptom during menopause. Meanwhile, Flo Health Inc. is expanding its offerings to encompass perimenopause and menopause assistance, propelling technological insights and health studies to new heights. On the other hand, many people still avoid talking about menopause. That's why I was so excited to hear Halle Berry's powerful call-out on the issue. I wish more women could hear her and know that this phase can be managed—and that self-care can be a priority. 🌸

HOW ARE YOU SUPPORTING THE MEN IN YOUR WORKFORCE WITH MENOPAUSE? Don't think you need to? Think again. Men are: ✅Partners ✅Husbands ✅Sons ✅Leaders ✅Fathers I meet many men on my menopause awareness programs who are trying to navigate menopause in these different roles and are struggling. I believe we need men to be informed, included, and aware of menopause so they can support those women, trans men and non-binary colleagues in their lives. Men have a different experience of menopause as they are not going through it physically. HOWEVER, they are going through it emotionally via their relationships. We need men to be: ✅Advocates; ✅ Sponsors; and ✅ Champions of menopause in the workplace. What is your organisation doing to build menopause awareness for male leaders? Not got a plan yet? Need one? DM me to have a chat. You can also hear some male perspectives on our website https://buff.ly/3RnEjuu #menopauseawareness #menopausematters #maleleaders #menopauseintheworkplace
